Overview
- Promoter Turki Alalshikh announced Thursday that Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will meet on Dec. 11, 2026 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff with the fight streaming worldwide on Netflix at no extra cost to subscribers.
- The event will be promoted by Turki Alalshikh’s The Ring alongside Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing, reflecting a shift in commercial control toward Saudi-backed and UFC-linked promoters in big-ticket boxing.
- Organisers plan ring walks in the early hours in the UK to suit U.S. viewers, a schedule that requires Cardiff Council licence changes and final sign-off on exact start and finish times.
- A joint press conference for Fury and Joshua is set for Sept. 30 in London, with undercard lineups, ticketing plans and precise broadcast timing to be announced during the promotional build-up.
- Both fighters arrive as former two-time heavyweight champions coming off 2026 tune-up wins, a pairing billed for legacy and commercial value rather than for undisputed titles, and the deal’s revenue, tax and operational details will shape local economic impact and final purses.
